Description
Auralic Aries wireless network streaming bridge with remote, PLT series connector, and an Auralic Ultra Low Noise Linear PSU AC power supply in excellent condition. Purchased new, sole owner, used for streaming roon to my main system. Used mainly as a Roon endpoint, with occasional streaming from my phone. Cosmetically in great shape with a few blemishes, such as the scratch on the front panel as pictured and some light scuffs on its top plate. No dents/ dings/ chunks taken out of it. The front digital panel has light burn-in which is evident at startup, but isn’t noticed when in use (last pic of the digital panel in the play function). Streamer is fully functional, and sounds great. When you consider the many things the ARIES can do and the very high level of performance that it offers, I would argue it is one of the best values in all of digital audio today. Having the ARIES in my system has transformed my review listening experiences for the better; the ARIES gives me instant access to my music library (including all of my high-res PCM and DSD files), plus the ability to explore streaming content whenever I choose. But above all, ARIES is a convenient, reliable, and easy-to-use system that imposes virtually no compromises in performance. If that’s not having your sonic cake and eating it, then I don’t know what would be. - theabsolutesound.com Auralic Specs: Type: Wireless streaming bridge Streaming services supported: Local uPnP/DLNA library content; online streaming from TIDAL, Qobuz, and WiMP; Internet Radio, AirPlay, Songcast, and USB hard drive files.
